    Zhao Men’s expression changed almost instantly. She was so shocked by it that she couldn’t say anything.


    She looked at Zhao Chuchu anxiously as if she were lost.


    Thedy understood that if Hu Yiming had not injured his head, which resulted in his IQ reverting to that of a child now, she would never have had the chance to marry him. The Hu n would never ept ady like her into their family.


    She was nothing more than a vigedy, while the Hu n was a prestigious family. So they would find him a wife from another prestigious family instead. That was the tradition.


    Zhao Chuchu noticed the changes in Zhao Men’s expression and said, “The choice is still yours. You can decide if you want to cure him or not.”


    “Are you sure you can cure him?” Zhao Men finally asked in a shaky voice after a long while. “If you could, will he recover back to before he hurt his head? Will he stop acting like a child? Will he be able to continue to study and participate in the Imperial Examination as Xie Heng did?”


    “Yes, he will.”


    “Then, please, treat him. He’s a nice guy who deserves to live a better life than


    “But you might lose everything once he recovers.”


    “I know, but if there’s a chance for Yiming to recover, I would always choose that, even if that means losing everything that I have. I shall not be that selfish. Yiming deserves a betterdy as his wife than I am.”


    “Are you sure?


    “Yes, I am.”


    Zhao Men had made a decision. Despite the pain in her heart, she still nodded.


    She wanted to live the rest of her life with her husband, but she didn’t want to let him live his life as a child forever, either.


    Because Hu Yiming had been nice to her the whole time, she hoped that he could have a sessful future too.


    “If the Hu n chooses to ask me for a divorce, I will ept it. I don’t have any siblings, anyway. I cane home, stay by their side, and care for them once they are old. Chuchu, please make him better.”


    Zhao Chuchu looked at Zhao Men and couldn’t help but pat her head. “You stupid girl…”


    “I’ve made my decision.” Zhao Men smiled.


    “Alright. As long as you won’t regret it.”


    “I would only regret it if I chose not to cure him because of my selfishness. I’m ready to ept anything thates after that.”


    “Okay, I’ll help him.”


    Zhao Men smiled, but it was a smile that was uglier than a cry.


    She liked Hu Yiming a lot.


    Even though they weren’t married for long, she could not forget the part of her life where she spent all of her days with him every day.


    Zhao Chuchu knew that Zhao Men wasn’t forcing herself to be kind but that


    she had already thought it through.


    She was indeed a kind girl.


    “A good deed never goes unrewarded,” Zhao Chuchu thought.


    The scenario that she had just told Zhao Men was just a presumption.


    If she really treated Hu Yiming, the Hu n would only thank Zhao Men even more. They weren’t the type of family that would chase Zhao Men out so that the cured Hu Yiming could marry someone else.


    As for Hu Yiming, if he did recover and if he didn’t like Zhao Men anymore, he would still not abandon her. She was still legally his wife, and he would show her enough respect.


    However, the love he had for her wasn’t a lie. Hu Yiming loved Zhao Men now and would still love her in the future.


    Unfortunately, time could only tell if Zhao Chuchu was right or not. Ultimately, humans were unpredictable, and no one could tell if Hu Yiming would change.


    When Zhao Men left the room, Hu Yiming could sense that she was in a bad mood.


    That made him worry. He quickly got some food for her and even massaged her shoulders. He was so worried that, like a child, he questioned Zhao


    Chuchu, “Did you bully Men? She was smiling just now! If you did bully her, I wouldn’te here again!”


    “N-no! She didn’t!” Zhao Men quickly said. “She told me that I might be sick and asked me to take care of my own body.”


    “But you don’t look sick.”


    “There are illnesses that can’t be seen. She didn’t bully me. Don’t ever say something like this at another person’s home, okay?”


    “O-okay. I-I’m sorry…” Hu Yiming apologized like a kid who had made a mistake.


    He looked almost as old as Xie Heng but acted like a three-year-old child. It was weird and pitiful to look at.


    “It’s okay. You got angry because you were worried about your wife. Will you continue to protect Men like you just did?” Zhao Chuchu smiled.


    Hu Yiming nodded. “I will! I’ll protect her for the rest of my life! Mom told me that Men was the one who would be with me forever! So I won’t hurt her!


    And I like her the most!”


    He then hugged Zhao Men’s arm and asked, “Right?”


    Zhao Men’s face turned red immediately as she was embarrassed. “We can’t do this here. Can you let me go?


    “No! I like Men the most!”


    Zhao Men was rendered speechless.


    Looking at how shy Zhao Men was, Zhao Chuchu took some candies out to divert Hu Yiming’s attention. “Yiming, do you want to try this sweet? They don’t sell this here, and only I have it. Look at how colorful they are.”


    That managed to attract Hu Yiming’s attention. He let go of Zhao Men and grabbed the candies while beaming happily.


    Zhao Men quickly let out a sigh of relief.


    After eating one of the candies, Zhao Chuchu asked Zhao Men to take Hu Yiming into Xie Jun’s room.


    “Are we going to start now?” Zhao Men asked nervously.


    “Yes. Once I head into the city with Da Lang, I won’t be able toe back here so often. The New Year was yesterday, too, so don’t worry about it.”


    “It’s not that. I’m just worried that you’re too busy.”


    “There’s nothing more important than treating him now. So don’t overthink it.


    Just stay there. I’ll start with some acupuncture.”


    “Okay.”


    Zhao Men stepped back and sat down by the chair. She grabbed her hands tightly and held her breath.


    “Men, what is going on?” Hu Yiming was a little ufortable.


    “Yiming, do you want to be smarter?” Zhao Chuchu asked. “If you be smarter, you’ll be able to protect Men even better.”


    “Yes! Can you make me smarter?”


    “I can, but you’ll have to do what I say. I’ll put some needles in your head, which might hurt, but you’ll have to endure it, okay?”


    “Okay! I’ll endure it!”


    “If you endure it, I’ll give you more candy.”


    “Really?” Hu Yiming’s eyes widened, and he quicklyy still. “I’m ready!’ Zhao Chuchu chuckled and took her silver needles out.


    The treatment was long, and the acupoints where the needles were inserted would hurt a lot. Hu Yiming was sweating profoundly from the pain, but he could endure it and didn’t even make a noise.


    Even Zhao Chuchu was impressed by Hu Yiming’s will.


    Only his IQ had reverted to that of a three-year-old) but the rest of him was still an adult.


    Zhao Men gulped as the process continued.


    When Zhao Chuchu finally inserted thest needle, Hu Yiming could no longer


    bear the pain and fainted.


    “Yiming…” Zhao Men was terrified.
